Dreaming of Fabric

I got the inspiration for this in 2007 from a tapestry my sister brought back from Kazakhstan.

Blue Kazakh Pattern

I’m still sick, so I spent most of yesterday napping and trying to figure out if staying hydrated was worth all the trips to the bathroom. Since my graphics card is wonky I can’t watch movies or play games so I spent my waking moments combing through old sketchbooks from as far back as 2005. I found some gems and here is one of them.

I’ve got a cache of these and I’m dreaming of printing on fabric. I think its time to set up an account on Spoonflower. I’ve wanted to do this for a long time and at this point I’m really not sure what I’ve been waiting for.

And it’s been ignored in my sketchbook since 2007.

Daily Sketch: Continuing Spirals

I woke up today congested, exhausted and cranky. I hope to God that its allergies and not a new cold coming on.

Either way, today I have an epic task! Today I must make a Minecraft cake for my friend’s birthday. I’ll try to post pics tomorrow. I’m construing it out of 6 different types of brownies to represent a selection of the different minerals that you can mine in the game. Brownies seem like the best substrate because they will be moist enough to stack without toppling… I hope o_O

But before I go slave in the kitchen on a 90 degree day, here’s what I was working on last night while I watched animes. I love you Bleach!
